There are over 70 hormone replacement therapy (HRT) products available in the United Kingdom and while most remain in good supply, factors including an increase in demand has led to supply issues with a limited number of products. We regularly engage with suppliers, the National Health Service and the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency to maintain overall supply, including expediting resupply dates of disrupted HRT products.<\/p>

We have issued Serious Shortage Protocols (SSPs) on HRT products to ensure an even distribution and allow alternative products to be dispensed as necessary. Since April 2022, 17 SSPs for HRT products have been issued and seven remain in place as the supply of several products affected by short term supply issues has been resolved. We regularly communicate with the NHS on shortages and discontinuations, including HRT products currently affected by supply issues and via the Specialist Pharmacy Service Medicine Supply tool.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4492", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Maria Caulfield"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Lewes"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Maria Caulfield"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2022-12-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2022-12-20T17:06:01.48Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2022-12-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Hormone Replacement Therapy"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent steps his Department has taken to monitor the national availability of HRT.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4657", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Anneliese Dodds"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Oxford East"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Anneliese Dodds"} ], "uin" : "109778"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1551198", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1551198/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

In 2022, 17 Serious Shortage Protocols (SSPs) were issued to mitigate supply issues affecting hormone replacement therapy (HRT) medicines. SSPs can be extended or withdrawn to take account of changing supply situations and 10 of these SSPs have subsequently been withdrawn due to improvements in supply.

The Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) has been recording data since April 2021 on concerns raised about Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPA) that mention fraud. Since April 2021, there have been 178 initial concerns that mention fraud. OPG carry out investigations following reports of fraud and act where they have the jurisdiction to do so.<\/p>

From April 2019 to 31 October 2022, 15 fraudulently created LPAs were removed from the register following investigation. In 10 of these cases, the Public Guardian removed the LPA from the register. The Public Guardian referred the remaining 5 cases to the Court of Protection, which led to LPAs being subsequently removed. Fraudulent LPAs currently represent less than 0.1% of all registered LPAs, which exceed 6 million.<\/p>

The OPG records the number of reported cases of fraud, but not the number that are passed to the police or the CPS on the death of an alleged victim. The OPG\u2019s legal authority ends upon the death of a donor (the individual who has created the LPA). As a result, where there is alleged fraud following the death of a donor, OPG would advise the concern raiser to raise their concern directly with the police if they feel it is appropriate.<\/p>

The Government has in the past weeks taken steps to strengthen protections against fraud in LPAs yet further. The Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) Bill, introduced by Stephen Metcalfe MP, will bring forward government proposals to make the system quicker, easier to access and more secure for the thousands of people who rely on an LPA every year. This includes a new requirement to verify identity through official documents, such as a driving licence, passport and a pension or benefits letter, helping to prevent the registration of lasting powers of attorney created by strangers through fraud by false representation. The Bill will also allow third parties to raise objections where those close to the case are concerned and provide that all objections go to the Public Guardian in the first instance.
